Some time ago, Gail Lane of British Columbia, Canada sent a query in to the site.  She is looking for information on the Jacob & Theresia SCHATTL Family of Mattoon, Wisconsin.  The family attended the Catholic Parish Holy Family in Mattoon and later relocated to Antigo.  The parents die young and the older children apparently raise the younger children.  Since the original query, Gail has found some additional information on the family, but still has some blank spaces.  If you know any additional info, please contact Gail directly at Bob-Gail@shaw.ca -- And Gail, thanks for the pictures!!

Left Photo is of their house in Mattoon, years after they left.  If you know where this house was in the Mattoon area, Gail would love to hear from you.

Right Photo is of the children taken at Antigo - Emma, Fanny & Jackie.  Their father worked on the railroad and the picture is taken in front of the Crocker Chair Company
